Letters Patent No. 93,038, dated July 27, 18.69.

IMPROVEMENT IN COMBINED 4HARIEOW AND MARKER.

The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent -aud making part of the same.,

specification, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon. l

Figure 1 of the drawings is a plan viewv of my de-` vice.

Figure 2 is a bottom-plan view of the same.

Figure 3 is a longitudinal section thereof.

My invention relates to harrows; and

vIt consists mainly in constructing a hauow of a peculiar form in'two sections, and adjusting it to a sulkycarriage, so as to be raised or lowered by the drivers feet, and in combining therewith a marker for cornrows, to be raised or lowered by the driveiis hand.

vThe letter A of the drawings represents the axle of the carriage, and letter'B is the drivers seat.

The letter Gis a harrow formed in the shape of dragginghooks, divided at its centre into two sections, each sectionbeing pivoted or hinged under the axle, and adjusted so as to be raised or lowered at will by the use of the foot-levers a a.

y rlhe letterD is a frame hinged to the top of the axle, as shown, to the rear cross-bar of which I atta'ch the vmarking-plows c c c.

The letter s isa hand-level, constructed in the form represented on lig. 3, passing through a staple on the top ofthe axle, and having its rear end firmly connected with the rear bar of the frame D. y

By the use of this hand-lever, the driver raises or lowers marking-plows at will. i

.These devices furnish to the farmer a vneat and conveniept implement, by which the ground can be harrowed and marked for corn-rows at one and the same time, while the sectional harrow, with the foot-levers attached and the hand-lever connected with the marker, enables the operator to use the implement on stony or rooty ground.

l'Vilhat I claim as my invention, and desire to 'securev by Letters Patent, is-

The combination and arrangement of the sectional harrow C, marking-frame D, and levers aand s, oonstl'ucted and.` operating substantially as and for the4 purposes specified.

1n testimony that I claim the above, I have hereunto subscribed my name, in the presence of two witnesses.
